About Camellia Shrubs

Camellia evergreen shrubs are a staple in southern yards & gardens.  It's actually the state flower for Alabama. Camellia's have beautiful colors & long lasting blooms.  There have been a lot of new introductions with various colors & hardiness. There are Camellia's available now for hardiness grow zones 4 through 9.

Camellia's are known for their year round color and winter blooms.  There are two popular species of Camellia's.  Sasanqua camellia (Camellia sasanqua), has blooms in fall.  Usually starting in September and keeps blooming into January. The Japanese or Common Camellia,(Camellia japonica) blooms in winter (December) to early spring (April).  To enjoy Camellia blooms for the longest time, mix & match a collection of Camellia's between sasanqua and japonica.

Camellia's are considered somewhat deer resistant. The North Carolina Cooperative Extension lists them as 'occasionally damaged'. Deer could munch on them if there is nothing else available.

How to Grow & Care for Camellia Evergreen Shrubs:

Camellia's are pretty low maintenance.  You can plant them in a row to create a colorful privacy wall. Camellia's prefer slightly acidic soil that is well drained. They can be paired well with plants of similar solid needs.  Azalea's would pair well.  A grouping of camellia's and Encore Azaleas would give you color almost year round.

If you do plant them in a row, leave enough room between them so they are not competing too much as they get established.  At least 5 feet apart is recommended.

According to the American Camellia Society, you can use camellia's for container growing.  They recommend against using regular potting soil.  Instead they suggest using a potting mix for camellias.  Fertilize the plants during their growing season with a camellia-specific fertilizer  or with a mixture of 1 part iron and 4 parts cottonseed meal.

The North Carolina Cooperative Extension has a great article; How to Grow Camellia's.

In general, care for Camellia evergreen shrubs starts with planting properly. Once established Camellia shrubs are relatively easy to grow and care for. This means it's vital to plant your Camellia shrubs in somewhat acidic soil that is amended with a mix of top soil & compost or similar fertilizer.  Preparing the soil will help better stimulate root growth. Camellia shrubs grow best with what is referred to as ‘dappled’ sunlight.  In other words, they do best if they are planted underneath larger shade trees that allow for some filtered sun to come through the leaves.

When established, care is pretty simple and straightforward.  If you want your Camellia shrubs to hold a specific shape you can prune them in the late-winter or early-spring before new development begins to grow.
